Chapter 396: Holy Land Monsters
Everyone looked around and found that sure enough, as the captain said, in addition to being relatively backward, the people here are indeed very similar to Xia Guo's way of life.
"So they're telling the truth!" Zhou Yu said.
The captain nodded, "It should be true." ”
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Yan and said, "Leader Zhou, since your tribe claims to have a salt department, then you can also be regarded as a member of the Xia Kingdom, why don't you go west and defect to the Xia Kingdom." ”
"This is our land, leave, we don't want to, Xia, don't accept us, worry." Zhou Yan said slowly.
The captain smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, Xia Guo is very enlightened, if you are really willing to submit to Xia Guo, I can introduce you to join Xia Guo, even if you become the most ordinary countryman, it is easier than you live here." ”
But Zhou Yan shook his head and said: "Thank you for your kindness, our clan has lived here for a long time, and the clansmen are reluctant to leave. ”
The captain nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then we won't force it, but Patriarch Zhou, what kind of monster do you want to deal with, if it is an ordinary beast, with your number of people, and the weapons in your hands should not be a problem." ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Yan's expression darkened, and he said: "Those monsters appeared a year ago, and we don't know where they came from, the Holy Land was occupied by them, and the tribe was not here before." ”
The captain was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean to say that you were driven out by them?" ”
Zhou Yan nodded, and pointed to a mountain on the guide's side: "The side of the Holy Land Mountain is very big, many tribes live there, monsters come, people run away, and many people die." ”
"Do you mean monsters like humans or beasts, or... Dinosaur! The captain asked.
"Dinosaurs?" Zhou Yan asked puzzled.
"Patriarch Zhou, dinosaurs are a kind of creatures that lay eggs, some of them have intelligence, look like people, and have green skin."
Zhou Yan shook his head and said: "It's not a dinosaur, they are another kind of creature, they have never seen them before, they suddenly appeared, they have no wisdom, they are very fast, and there are a lot of them." ”
"Suddenly? What do you mean? The captain didn't understand this sentence.
Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, "A year ago, people were trading in the Holy Land, and where there was nothing, they suddenly appeared. ”
Speaking of this, his face was full of fear, and after a long time, after calming down a little, he continued: "They killed the people who traded, occupied there, people couldn't beat them, they ran away, there was a salt department fled here, hiding, we want to retake the holy land, our weapons can't work, there are only three bronze swords." ”
Zhou Yan slapped the copper sword on his waist.
Zhou Yan's description is really incredible, how can there be a creature that suddenly appears in this world, this matter is beyond their cognition.
But if Wang Lang is here, I'm afraid it would be another thought, he just appeared in this world suddenly, and those monsters are likely to come from another world by accident like him.
"When will you take us to meet those monsters, if we can't do anything about them, we can return to the Xia Kingdom and ask His Majesty the Emperor to send an army to clear them." The captain said slowly.
Zhou Yan nodded and said, "Yes, tomorrow, you will rest today!" It's a long way to go! ”
"You found us before!" The captain squinted at Zhou Yan, who had been followed for a month, and he was curious why these people did what they did.
"Yes, when you settled in the mountains, our hunting beasts discovered you."
"Then you didn't contact us before, why are you contacting us now?"
"Don't get me wrong, we are observing you, we didn't know who you were before, what are you doing here, during this time, I have seen your strength, look at the stones, you are just, the old patriarch, we are the same, we can rest assured! So looking for you. Zhou Yan explained.
"I see!" The captain nodded.
As they spoke, the women with salt were serving the roasted meat, cut it into small slices with stone knives, and put it in an ugly clay plate.
"Xia Ren, please eat!" Zhou Yan gestured.
"Thank you!"
The captain hugged Zhou Yan with a fist.
After speaking, he nodded to his companion beside him.
The expedition members, who had not eaten for nearly a day, did not care about their image at this time, grabbed the food and began to eat, this woman with salt is indeed unique in barbecue, and the taste is excellent.
Zhou Yu saw several women staring at this side and pointing at these people, thinking of the way he gobbled up, Zhou Yu's face couldn't help but turn red, and he couldn't help but sit upright, pretending to be unfathomable.
After Zhou Yan told the tribesmen about the situation of the expedition, people from the Yan Department began to surround him curiously.
They greeted them very warmly, and some bold women even touched their bodies.
This made the faces of these young people, who had never touched a woman, blushing to the root of their ears.
"Team... Captain, what are we going to do? Zhou Yu stammered.
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of his teammates, the captain said with disdain: "What should I do, where is your ability to talk big before, there are people from the salt tribe who entertain you so warmly, you can't let them down!" ”
Zhou Yan said: "Xia people, these clansmen thank you for your help, and the young girls hope to conceive your child." ”
"Patriarch Zhou, how can this be, how can you have children if you are not married?"
Zhou Yan smiled and said: "Xia people, the old patriarch has said about you, but our tribe has rules for us, the tribe must be strong and needs people, the rest of the tribe has fled, you are all excellent warriors, women are pregnant with your children, the tribe is strong!" ”
Zhou Yan's explanation was stunned for a moment, they had never heard of it, that woman forced a man to give birth, if it was in Xia Kingdom, such a woman would be considered a slut, a woman who could be a husband, and generally this kind of woman would be degraded to a prostitute.
But here it is different, this is a kind of wind speed with salt, women are not for desire, but for reproduction, looking at these women who only have animal skins around their waists, and two towering lumps of flesh, these young lads, the blood in their bodies seems to be boiling, and their breathing becomes rapid.
Passionately pulled by these women, the team members were dragged to their respective small tents to do something unspeakable.
The men of the salt department couldn't help but laugh when they looked at these Xia people who were dragged away by the women.
They will not be jealous of these Xia people, most of the women of the tribe are related to them, and the tribe does not allow a tribe of men and women to mate.
This tribe maintains the wind speed of a matrilineal society, which is known as the marriage system, in which men go to other tribes to keep their children and then return to the tribe, and the children born are only known to their mothers but not their fathers.
Zhou Yu, who tasted the taste of a woman for the first time, lay on the hay and hugged the woman in his arms, his face full of unfinished color.
"What's your name?" Zhou Yu asked.
But the woman couldn't understand what he was saying, and her eyes stared at him curiously.
As he got up, he took his backpack over, fumbled in it for a while, and took out a hairpin with exquisite workmanship.
Looking at this hairpin, Zhou Yu hesitated for a while, this thing was originally intended to be given to his wife when he got married, and since he was married to this woman, he planned to give this thing to her.
"Here's for you!" Zhou Yu handed the hairpin to the woman.
The woman took the hairpin, her eyes were full of excitement, the golden hairpin, in her eyes extremely beautiful, happy like a child.
"I'll bring it for you!" Zhou Yu turned her back to her, straightened out her messy hair with her fingers, coiled a hair ornament that was very popular among Xia women, inserted the hairpin into her hair, and pinched a few lice in her hair.
The woman touched her hair, and with a look of excitement on her face, she ran out excitedly, and then followed the reflection in the clay pot, looking at herself who was different from usual.
Looking at the hairpin shaking in her hair, the woman grinned happily.
Zhou Yu got dressed and walked out of the low tent, and when he saw that someone had come out, several people tacitly glanced at each other and smiled obscenely.
Through this relationship, Zhou Yu and the others quickly integrated into the tribe, although it was very difficult to communicate, but when the expedition team showed their equipment to everyone, they were still amazed and exclaimed.
Especially when showing the power of the waist knife, it made the men stunned, this off-white weapon can be said to be much more powerful than the bronze sword.
"Natsu, all the weapons are like this?" Zhou Yan asked in surprise.
The captain nodded, and said proudly: "This is only a small part, we are not warriors, but students who came out to explore, the real army is much more powerful than a few of us, this weapon in our hands is nothing, when the alien race invaded the Xia country, the battle of tens of thousands of people, it seems that the sky is about to fall, that is the real war." ”
Zhou Yan couldn't imagine what kind of picture it was, tens of thousands of people fighting, he couldn't imagine how many people it would be.
"Xia, it's really powerful!" Zhou Yan said with emotion.
The captain said: "Of course, only the Xia Kingdom in this world can protect the existence of human beings, although this world is very large, but the outside are all alien races called dinosaur people, if the Xia Kingdom is defeated in that war, there will be no more humans in the Shenzhou Continent, and the human race will also perish in this world." ”
"Is the alien strong?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Very strong, stronger than the Xia Kingdom, but they are far away from our continent, it is not easy to come from such a far place, the Xia Kingdom is fighting on its own, we will not be conquered by them, when I left, I heard that the Xia Kingdom has new weapons that have been researched, maybe we can also send troops to attack them, so that those alien races dare not despise us humans." The captain said confidently.
Zhou Yan looked at the west and muttered, "The leader of Xia is really powerful!" ”
The captain smiled and said, "Chief? Your Majesty is not the leader, he is the emperor, and he is the leader of all mankind, which is different from your small tribe of hundreds of people, after so many years of development, the Xia Kingdom has a population of almost one million, and the number is as many as the stars in the sky. ”
"I'd love to go over there!" Zhou Yandao.
"What's wrong with this, if you want to go, I can write a letter, you take the letter, I believe that the officials of the Xia Kingdom should be able to accept you easily."
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "No, it's not the time yet, Xia, it's too far, I can't eat, I can't go." ”
The captain was silent for a while and said: "You are right, this is indeed a problem, you want to go to the nearest city of Xia Kingdom, so many people will not be able to get there in a year, but you can send some people to Xia Kingdom, if you submit to the imperial court, the imperial court should send officials to help you develop here." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, I'll think about it again!" Zhou Yan didn't rush to agree.
The captain didn't care either, yawned and said, "It's not too early, I'll go sleep for a while, and I'll see what the monsters are like tomorrow." ”
With that, he got up and walked towards the accommodation that the Arishibu had arranged for his people.
The next day, after filling his stomach, Zhou Yan picked out a few capable men from the tribe and led the expedition towards their holy land.
Due to the long distance, it was impossible to return that day, so the women of the tribe prepared some food for them to carry with them.
The terrain of the place where the salt department lives is complicated, and the only way to get out of the valley is to climb the steep slope through the cave.
After climbing over several steep hills, it was already approaching dusk at this time, and at this time, Zhou Yan waved his hand to signal the team to stop.
"What's wrong?" The captain asked.
Zhou Yan pointed ahead and said, "After passing the hill in front, you can see the holy land, danger, here!" Be careful! ”
The captain nodded, telling the team to be on guard.
The team slowed down and looked around vigilantly, and the silence around them was so quiet that they could not even hear the cries of insects except for the rustling of the trees.
Everyone came to the top of the mountain, and for safety, everyone hunched over as much as possible to keep themselves from being exposed.
Hiding behind an exposed rock, Zhou Yan pointed down and said, "Holy land, there!" ”
The captain looked in the direction he was pointing, and below the hillside was a relatively flat basin, and in the center of that basin was a sizable complex of buildings.
As it was close to dusk, the light had become a little dim, and at this distance, only a vague outline could be seen.
Take off the backpack behind you, take the binoculars out of the backpack, lie down on the rocks, and look over the side with the binoculars.
In the field of vision, the buildings are all made of huge stones, and they look dilapidated, and they look like they have been abandoned for a long time, but they can vaguely see that this was once an extremely prosperous city.
